The differences between the Gs and Hs aren't trivial...and there's the START treaty issue, as well.

START treaty issues?

They are electronic-warfare aircraft. Last I checked, that type of aircraft was not a part of the START treaty. Furthermore, START only applies to nuclear-capable bombers. I don't think an EB-52G would have the proper certifications for nuclear weapons, would it?

*pauses*

Okay, I admit it, I'm looking for some loopholes in the treaty. :)
